Elf On The Shelf 2014 - Week 3

We went away for 3 days to Brussels last weekend so we're missing a few days of Elf on the Shelf antics this week however Buddy did still managed to get up to some mischief, here's what he's been up to.

I've seen this idea on Pinterest and thought it was so sweet that I had to do it myself, basically Buddy brings the kids some magic seeds (tic tacs) and leaves them instructions to plant them in sugar, we used brown sugar as it looked more like soil and then they wait 24 hours for the seeds to grow into candy canes. Riley and Summer loved this and really enjoyed planting the seeds, they were so excited to see what would grow and couldn't wait to get up the next morning.

The next morning the seeds had grown into candy canes and the kids were amazed!

Buddy got confused when he did some wrapping and instead of wrapping up the kids presents he wrapped up himself!

Buddy decided to bring the kids some Christmas themed crafts in the shape of stickers and stamper which they loved, unfortunately they got most of the stickers and stamps on my coffee table than on the paper.

This is another idea I saw on Pinterest and as Riley loves googly eyes I had to do this one. Buddy needed some help keeping an eye on the kids so he signed up some new recruits.
